A talented salesman, voracious reader, gentle giant and uber nerd - Gabe is my very special guest for episode five. We get to dive into a part of Gabe's life that led him down a creative road he never intended to travel. While working as a comic book salesman for an internal comic book division of Double Take Media, he was offered a seat at the creative table as a writer. Courageously grasping this serendipitous chance changed what he imagined the direction of his career was going to be. In our conversation we talk about overcoming writing blocks, the process of creating a comic book, overcoming disappoints and being resilient as a creative.
